A Short History of Corporate Influence.
Gilbert, Terry
Educational Leadership, v50 n8 p54 May 1993
Shows the gradual deterioration of the U.S. public education system, beginning with a hypothetical school district's acceptance of Channel One programing with two-minute commercials in 1990 and ending with Educate America's offer to pick up any costs not already borne by private enterprise (in exchange for adopting the group's curriculum) by 2010.
